This year’s Democratic primaries look and sound a lot more populist(民粹主义的) than usual. Brian Poindexter, a union iron worker running on a “workers first” message(以“工人优先”口号竞选), won a House primary outside Cleveland. Sherrod Brown is mounting(发起,进行) a Senate comeback in Ohio on the same “rigged(被操纵的) system” message that has allowed him to outshine(使黯然失色,胜过) other Democrats in Ohio. Troy Jackson, a fifth-generation(第五代的) logger(伐木工人) who built his career fighting(职业生涯致力于对抗) corporate landowners(企业地主), is the Democratic Senate nominee in Maine. And Josh Turek, a self-described(自称的) “prairie populist(草原民粹主义者)”, is on the Senate ballot(选票) in Iowa.
今年的民主党初选看起来和听起来都比往常更加民粹主义。布莱恩·波因德克斯特(Brian Poindexter)是一名工会钢铁工人,他以“工人优先”的口号在克利夫兰郊外的众议院初选中获胜。谢罗德·布朗(Sherrod Brown)正在俄亥俄州以同样的“被操纵的体制”口号发起参议院复出竞选,这一口号使他在俄亥俄州的其他民主党人中脱颖而出。特洛伊·杰克逊(Troy Jackson)是第五代伐木工人,职业生涯致力于与企业地主作斗争,他是缅因州的民主党参议院候选人。乔什·图雷克(Josh Turek)自称“草原民粹主义者”,他正在爱荷华州竞选参议员。
In fact(事实上), according to research we’ve conducted through the Center for Working-Class Politics (CWCP), more than 70% of 2026 Democratic candidates now rely on populist rhetoric(修辞,花言巧语) in their campaigns, laying the blame for our broken system(破碎的体制) on rich elites of one kind or another(各种各样的).
事实上,根据我们通过工薪阶层政治研究中心(CWCP)进行的研究,2026年民主党候选人中有超过70%现在在竞选中依赖民粹主义言论,将我们破碎体制的责任归咎于某种富有的精英。
It seems after decades of bleeding(流失,失血) working-class support, Democrats are converging on(趋于一致,汇聚于) a solution to win them back(赢回他们): run populists.
看来,在流失工薪阶层支持数十年后,民主党正趋于达成一个解决方案来赢回他们:推举民粹主义者。
